When do you need a copywriter or editor?
Over the past couple of years, I’ve met a lot of people who didn’t know that copywriters or editors were available for them. This surprises me, but only because I’m so close to it – I’m the one providing that service so I’ve always known I exist! I thought it might help to talk about when a copywriter or editor comes in handy, and for what projects.
When do you need a copywriter?
If you’re not good with words at all and you wish someone would just write the thing for you – a copywriter can do just that! We take all the necessary information about your project and give you the words you were struggling to find.
When do you need an editor?
If you are pretty comfortable with words, it’s a good idea to have an editor take a look at it as well. You’ve probably spent a lot of time on your project, so letting someone look it over who’s new to it will help. Especially if this person is good with words too – we can make your written project even better.

Every copywriter or editor has different skill sets and interests, so be sure to ask if they do offer writing or editing services for your specific type of project. If they don’t do grant proposals or news releases, for example, they might be able to point you in the direction of someone who does!
